Private Chef

bespoke & unique

With La Cuisine by Alexandre, I offer a private chef service for your private meals and events. The idea is simple: to allow you to host at home with complete peace of mind, without worrying about the organisation, while offering your guests refined and personalised cuisine.

Whether for a private dinner, a birthday, a family reception, a brunch at home or an evening with friends, I accompany you from the choice of menu through to the service. Each service is designed according to your wishes and the atmosphere you want to create, with fluid and stress-free organisation.

Hiring a private chef is, above all, choosing a convivial and authentic moment. As a private head chef, I cook with fresh, seasonal products, paying particular attention to flavours, details and the pleasure of sharing a good meal.

A Professionally Managed Service

from A to Z

In practical terms, the service includes:

  • prior discussion to define your expectations and the flow of the event,
  • the purchase and selection of fresh produce,
  • preparation and set-up of the selected menu,
  • plating and service of the dishes,
  • tidying and cleaning of the kitchen area after the service,
  • a 5-hour service package.

My goal: to offer you a fluid, elegant and stress-free experience
